johnwmclean Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I watched the first episode yesterday. I really enjoyed it. Production has stopped due to the death of three horses during filming. http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/hbo-cancels-luck-horse-death-peta-dustin-hoffman-300201 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMoney Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Really? I loved it. I was really sad to see it go, but if its whats best for the safety of the horses then I guess its for the best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Monkey Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Really? I loved it. I was really sad to see it go, but if its whats best for the safety of the horses then I guess its for the best. I couldn't stand it. Thought it would be good from the previews, but honestly didn't like a thing about it. I disliked all the characters. Dustin Hoffman annoyed me and I was just bored. I tried to give it a chance, maybe 2.5 episodes, but just couldn't get into it. That said, I've never been to the track but would like to go sometime. And Wink, perhaps this place isn't for you?

TMoney Posted June 25, 2012 Report Share Posted June 25, 2012 Its the kind of show that really took about 4 or 5 episodes to get into, but I started to really like the characters and enjoy following along, especially Escalante and the gamblers. In typical Michael Mann fashion, it wasn't easy to get into, but once you were in you were hooked. It is not a "lets sit back and see whats on" kind of a show. If you didn't pay attention you'd get lost quick because they didn't stop to repeat or simplify anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
